Description
Stone Barrington faces down danger on New York's mean streets in the latest thriller from perennial fan favorite Stuart Woods.
Upon returning to the states from a European jaunt, Stone Barrington makes the acquaintance of a stunning woman who seems like she could be an ideal candidate to meet some of his professional--and personal--needs. Before long, though, Stone is put to the task of protecting his new hire when New York City is rocked by a series of disturbing crimes, and it looks as if she might be the next target.
In the city that never sleeps there's always a plot being hatched, and the only recourse is constant vigilance and a bit of luck. But if those defensive systems fail, Stone will have to go head-to-head against some of the most dastardly scum he's ever faced . . .
Reviews
Another poor read.
1By tightenup15Stuart Woods needs to put out less books or retire, his writing skills have diminished greatly they past few years. I used to enjoy this series but now it reads like a kindergartener wrote it. The last one I will purchase.Desperate Measures
1By caboskipWow. Talk about mailing it in. Used to be entertaining, but between this book and Severe Clear, they both read like a junior high assignment. Hard to come out with so many books and maintain quality, I guess.Very Disappointing
1By BK0461I was so disappointed. This book reads like it was written hastily for an audience of illiterates. It was so cheesy and second-rate that I could not force myself to finish it. Stuart should be ashamed of peddling this book as literature. I wasted my $14.99 on this book.New York Dead Exhumed?

5By PushpushStableWhile thoroughly enjoying this series...I do sometimes wish Stone would be somewhat more loyal to the women who appears at frequent intervals.
